Erstausgabe
Wraps. Presumed first edition/first printing. vi, 30 p. Endnotes. This is one of the Advancing Strategic Thought Series. From an on-line posting: "Having the right "who" to devise strategy is critical to success in counterinsurgency or any asymmetric, cross-cultural encounter. This monograph contends that if we do not get the "who" right, none of the "whats, " in terms of what we do, matters. Dr. Anna Simons is a Professor of Defense Analysis at the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School (NPS). At NPS, she teaches courses in the anthropology of conflict, military advising, low intensity conflict in Africa, and political anthropology. Dr. Simons is the author of Networks of Dissolution: Somalia Undone and The Company They Keep: Life Inside the U.S. Army Special Forces. She has written extensively about intervention, conflict, and the military. Dr. Simons holds an A.B. from Harvard College and a Ph.D. in social anthropology from Harvard University." Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling.
